Poland requires NATO guarantees for Ukraine

President of Poland Andrzej Duda called on NATO countries to provide post -war guarantees of security for Ukraine. He stated this in an interview with Financial Times on the eve of the visit of US President Joe Biden to Warsaw.

According to Duda, the promises of security guarantees would be important for Ukraine and the morale of its soldiers, causing a “feeling that NATO supports them.”

President of Poland also called on the head of the White House “in very decisive expressions” to confirm during its visit to Warsaw that the United States unconditionally support the 5th article of the NATO agreement on the collective defense, according to which any attack on the member state of the Alliance is considered as an attack on all Bloc participants, writes Financial Times.

security guarantees that Kiev achieved could have a structure obliging the leading NATO powers, such as the USA, Great Britain and France, to provide military assistance in the event of an attack on Ukraine in the future, the publication notes. Former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogg Rasmussen, who, together with the head of the administration of President Vladimir Zelensky Andrei Ermak, became the co -author of the official proposal for the post -war security of Ukraine, described such guarantees as similar to the fact that Israel receives from the United States.
